Answer:

Time in hours

\frac{543}{60} \\9.05

Explanation:

Given

Decimal reduction time for endospores of Bacillus cereus in milk  = 36.2 minutes

Temperature at which bacillus endospores are reduced = 95°C

Population of endospores to be reduced = 1015

Targeted population of endospores = 1

So the total time taken to reduce population of 1015 endospores to 1 endospore is equal to

36.2 * 15\\= 543 minutes

Time in hours

\frac{543}{60} \\9.05

RUDIKE [14]
This is a case of acute or chronic (or acute on chronic) kidney disease. Mateo should take diuretics or drugs that induce tubular secretion and/or water excretion and therefore urination. If kidney disease worsens, the patient will undergo filtration of waste products from his blood or this is called hemodialysis. There is another way of filtering waste products using the fluid in the peritoneum called peritoneal dialysis. Other complications of chronic kidney disease is anemia as erythropoeitin (functions to signal the production of red blood cells) is produced in the kidneys.

If an animal cell is placed in hypertonic solution what happens to the cell
Soloha48 [4]
<span>A solution is hypertonic to a cell if it has a higher solute (dissolved substance) concentration than the cell does. As a result, it also has a lower concentration of water than the cell does. Cell membranes and plant cell walls are semipermeable barriers, which means that certain molecules can diffuse through them, while other molecules can not.</span>
